The GJO server is currently down due to a DOS (Denial of Service), which is essentially a flood of requests which brings a server down - a hacker attack for those who wonder what it is. I have notified the techs, and it is currently being worked on overtime. Due to the complexity of the problem, and because a couple of hours ago there was another network attack, the site will probably not be fully restored until sometime tomorrow, but rest assured it will be fixed.

According to my last correspondance with the host owner before he crashed to bed, all data and settting are backed up. GJO web admins will be sent new usernames and PW for FTP when this mess is cleared up.

Sorry for the inconvenience :x

No wonder I couldn't access the website. I actually could gain FTP access, but that was it (a few hours ago anyway).
